I dreamed of you last night
a memory from the past
your kisses on my skin
your arms around me
the way that it used to be
for some reason it just felt right in the dark of night
but as the sun rose in the east
the beast that we have become was shown once again
there is nothing left of what we used to be
except a nocturnal memory
As I look at you here in the light
your blue eyes that once held the key to my soul
are now just cold and gray
the way you used to touch my heart with the sweet words that you would say
are but a bitter reminder of what we lost along the way
I had never been closer to perfect than I was with you
you gave me wings
but wouldn't let me fly
you gave me kisses
but wouldn't give me time
you gave me hope
but took my life
months have passed since I left
the wings you gave me
are stronger everyday
the kisses
are now a bitter sweet memory
the hope you gave me
is what makes me want a better life
I do not hate the past
and I look toward the future with new eyes
but I miss the blue eyes that would look into mine
make me feel safe, make me feel trust, make me believe in love
I will never forget
I will never regret
but for both our sakes
I just needed you to know
the person I am becoming
before I let you go
